We are a 2nd generation family owned full service plumbing & gas fitting contractor in Maryland, offering repair and installation of most plumbing & gas items.

"Was told, I had to pay $50 for them to come out and see what was wrong. I didn't mind paying that. The man broke the pipe worse than what it was. Didn't fix it before he left and charged me $189 For attempting to fix the pipe. This all happened in less than 10 minutes. I will never call these people again. How do you go from $50 to $189 in 10 minutes after breaking something worse than it was."

"This company was terrible and took my money. They were supposed to come on December 23 after waiting all day they called and said they were coming until tomorrow. They came on December 24 when the plumber came in I informed him that I had already snaked it and that probably was not going to work they insisted on sneaking it anyway, after the plumber left and we paid $287.00, we proceeded to flush the toilet and once again, it was still stopped up. I called no one was able to come out until the 26th which is understandable since it was Christmas that following day. another plumber came out and informed me that the person that came was not really a plumber but just a person that unclog the toilet. He then proceeded to tell me that I needed a new toilet and then quoted me a price of $1300 to install a new toilet. I did inquire about a refund since the job was not completed effectively. I was told they could possibly install the toilet at a small discount. Went to Home Depot purchase a toilet for $200 and $250 for installation. I would not ever recommend this company to anyone I lost out on a lot of money with no result. I am very disappointing. Please donâ t use this company."

Water main install, replace or repairs FAQs

Whether you need a permit depends on your local regulations. Always check with your municipality before beginning the installation. Most contractors will handle the permitting process for you.

If your backflow preventer fails, dangerous contaminants can enter your clean water supply, posing serious health risks. You may notice signs like visible leaks, a sudden drop in water pressure, slow drainage, unpleasant odors, or discolored water. If you experience any of these symptoms, contact a professional immediately.

Signs of a failing backflow preventer include visible leaks, a sudden drop in water pressure, sluggish drainage, unpleasant odors, and discolored water. If you notice any of these issues, it's important to have your system inspected by a professional.

You might need a backflow preventer if you have features like irrigation systems, pools, or other water elements that could contaminate your water supply. Commercial and industrial properties are required to have backflow preventers due to higher contamination risks.

A backflow preventer stops water in your main supply from reversing flow and contaminating clean water. A backwater valve is installed in your drainage system to block sewage from backing up during heavy rainfall or overflow. Both devices protect your home but serve different purposes.

The time it takes to install a backflow preventer depends on the type of system. A plumber can typically install a simple backflow preventer, like those for a garden hose or appliance, in less than an hour. Installing a backflow preventer for a complex system can take up to a full day.
